Carol Stone has been appointed as the next Chief Executive of the UK's Responsible Gambling Fund (RGF) and Responsible Gambling Strategy Board (RGSB). Stone will move into the top job as of 1 February 2010 and lead a joint RGF-RGSB team. The RGF and the RGSB are the bodies responsible for distributing funds raised by the gambling industry. In conjunction with the Great Foundation (formerly known as the Responsibility in Gambling Trust), all three organisations coordinate the development and delivery of the research, education and implementation of a nation-wide responsible gambling strategy. As commented on by Baroness Neuberger, Chair of RGSB and RGF, Stone brings a wealth of previous grant writing and managing experience to her new position as Chief Executive. Neuberger remarked that, "We are very pleased to announce that Carol Stone will be the Chief Executive of RGF and RGSB, particularly because she has such a strong background in grant making and commissioning". Stone previously held the position of Chief Executive of the London Bombings Relief Charitable Fund, worked as a grant writing consultant, held senior posts in arts and museum management at the Arts Council, the New Opportunities Fund and the Big Lottery Fund and held a variety of advisory roles on committees supporting victims of crime and major incidents, and performing arts bodies. Stone will be replacing Stephen Dunmore who currently holds the position on a temporary basis as Interim Chief Executive until Stone's arrival next year. Prior to Dunmore, the position was held by Malcolm Bruce who left the RGF earlier this year to accept up a key position in the field of corporate social responsibility.
Everyone loves online casino welcome bonuses but few manage to turn them into a cool quarter of a mill! That's exactly what Brett Hill did when he used his free bet on the Major Millions slot. He couldn't believe his eyes when three jackpot symbols came up, triggering his massive £25K windfall. A Truly Happy Christmas Following his win he was, "dancing around the room like a lunatic". The win put a new spin on Christmas for Brett and his family, "We have given our children a bit of cash for Christmas and I have just returned from picking up my wife's brand new car as a result of the win! I'm saving the rest for a holiday or just a rainy day, as well as having a £1000 each for Christmas." 32Red is one of the UK's favorite online casinos and has won the Casinomeister Best Casino Award an incredible six times. Pat Harrison, Operations Director at the casino and slots giant commented, "Brett's win is amazing; he turned the £32 free from 32Red for signing up into £25,000." An Appropriate Name Brett's lucky Major Millions game is renowned for producing impressive wins; in 2008 Anne C took home over £1million from the bonus jackpot. Brett's win was actually not a bonus jackpot but a regular payout, leading Harrison to comment, "Brett's win demonstrates the strength of Major Millions and of our online slots in general, proving that the big wins are out there to be had". Brett is continuing to bet at 32Red and enjoys the Mega Moolah slot, which itself has a history of big jackpots, having paid out over £6 million earlier this year. We doubt, however, that it will ever replace Major Millions in Brett's affections.

After months of fevered anticipation, UK online slots players are finally experiencing the cinematic excellence of the new Lord of the Rings video slot; live in Microgaming-powered casinos since September. Clients of Microgaming venues would expect "The Fellowship of the Ring" to incorporate nothing less than avant garde gaming technology, but this hasn't lessened the impact of the slot's Cinematic Spins feature. Microgaming's Latest Brain Child This is the first time that Microgaming has integrated its freshly developed Cinematic Spins software into a new game release, and judging by the quality of the product and the positive response from players, it certainly won't be the last. The software plays official clips from the first of the LOTR films with every spin on the game's 5 reels. As a result, players are as immersed in the game as they were in the film itself. Film Scenes for Every Win Win sequences and expanding wilds also trigger cinema clips, rather than conventional animated graphics. The clips include: The deadly Ringwraiths on Weathertop The terrifying Balrog in the Mines of Moria The Uruk-hai (the super Orcs) in the forests of Middle Earth Other Features The reels themselves contain images of the most influential LOTR characters. There are 243 ways to win and a free spins bonus round. Other features include: an Eye of Sauron wild symbol a Ring scatter symbol an LOTR logo wild symbol Where to Play The slot can be played at numerous Microgaming casinos, some of which are running LOTR-special promotions. Crazy Vegas Casino has a Quest promotion: for 4 weeks only players collect magic coins on their journey from the Shire to Mordor. Collect 9 coins every week and unlock a member of your Fellowship. Complete the quest and win $9000 cash and thousands of free spins.
